[–] KickMeElmo@sopuli.xyz 21 points 8 months ago (2 children) Video games are a cheap hobby they said. So many options they said... permalink fedilink source parent hideshow 4 child comments replies: [–] Ravi@feddit.org 5 points 8 months ago (1 child) Strongly dependent on you. I'm on the other side of the spectrum. I rarely buy full price games and only those with long playtime. Makes a very efficient €/h investment compared to other hobbies. If you buy every CoD, EA gane or whatever each year and another full price release every month you're financially screwed though. permalink fedilink source parent hideshow 2 child comments replies: [–] KickMeElmo@sopuli.xyz 1 point 8 months ago (1 child) To be fair, I rarely buy games over $10, and frequently even that is a stretch. I've built my library heavily from bundles. It's still a decent amount when you look at it as a single lump sum, but it's also the entirety of my entertainment budget and it's been obtained fairly steadily over a period of 13 years. Per hour it's still pretty cheap. permalink fedilink source parent hideshow 2 child comments replies: [–] Ravi@feddit.org 1 point 8 months ago Great to hear that you didn't bankrupt yourself by building this incredible collection. Got some of those bundles myself, often pretty worth it even if you only want one of those games. permalink fedilink source parent [–] BenLeMan@lemmy.world 2 points 8 months ago 565 Games played permalink fedilink source parent
